A mock inspection is a full-service review of your care provision, designed to mirror the process of a real CQC inspection. It identifies gaps, risks, and improvement areas before the regulator does, giving you time to correct and prepare.
Our inspection covers everything from documentation and policies to staff knowledge, care delivery, and the environment. They are aligned with the 5 Key Questions the CQC asks, and the new quality framework:
Already registered with CQC? Our compliance health check offers a quicker assessment if you're short on time.
New to care provision? Start with our new provider support to build your foundations first.
Reduce the risk of non-compliance or enforcement action
Gain clarity on what the CQC will look for during inspection
Get a prioritised, actionable improvement plan
Reassure your team and build confidence
Stay one step ahead of regulatory changes
Our inspections are structured and thorough, typically reviewing:
Talking with residents, family & friends
Reviewing complaints and compliments
Speaking with healthcare professionals
Observations of practice
Community engagement
Discussions with staff
Premises walkthrough (on-site inspections)
Infection prevention and control (IPC)
Health & Safety
